Water Line is 1/4" off

So I got my 180g in the house on its DIY stand.....pulled out the level...bubble is sitting between the lines......so I fill her up and then notice the water line is off

Like I said it's about 1/4 inch off from left to right....back to front is perfect....my question is of course.....do I drain and shim the one side so it is more level? Is it not a big deal and I just don't worry about it?

The tank is Acrylic and is sitting on a foam pad on its stand.

I need advice as to what to do.....btw...my 75g cichlid tank did the same thing in that location and was up for 3 years without a problem...though the water line wasn't as noticable

Thanks for the help

I wouldn't worry about it. I had a 55 gallon that was like that, i just built the canopy with about 1 inch overhang and you couldn't see the water line. Also is the the tank on carpet? That could cause it not to be level. It may correct itself once you have it all filled and it settles.
